    Supercharger - Scottsdale, AZ - 7366 E Shea Blvd

    In-car nav is showing it as temporarily closed on Fri 10/6. Don't know the reason.

    Supercharger - Goodyear, AZ

    Stopped by on Fri 10/6. All of the pedestals are covered, and still no transformer.

    Supercharger - Encino, NM

    Thanks for the update, even though it wasn't what I was hoping for. I had been dreaming that construction might have been well underway and almost ready to open before anyone noticed. It would be nice to be able to skip the chargers in ABQ if/when this one and Moriarty ever get built.

    Supercharger - Chandler, AZ

    I charged there earlier this afternoon, and though it did not show in the car, the charge is showing on my credit card account. It appears there is no longer a grace period where everyone could get free charging at new superchargers. Because it wasn't showing in the in-car nav, the battery...

    Supercharger - Dateland, AZ

    I don't have free supercharging. If you have free supercharging for life, then you will continue to get free charging. The comments about new stations being free referred to the fact that usually charging at a new supercharger would be free to all for a short time after the supercharger opened...

    Supercharger - Dateland, AZ

    I had to drive out to Dateland when I saw it was active. I got my first first! I arrived with enough charge to get back to Gila Bend in case there was some problem at Dateland, so I didn't get max charging rates, but it did hit 140kW briefly. It's a very nice setup, with shaded parking at the...

    Supercharger - Encino, NM

    That is their address, probably because Encino is the nearest town. The main problem I see with this location is the trading post is only open from 7am to 7pm, making a pit stop problematic late in the evening. I guess you could go discreetly water the snakes.

    Supercharger - Beavercreek, OH

    I really hope it is up and running soon, as we're going to be in the area right after New Years and I would like to have this charger available.

    Supercharger - Beavercreek, OH

    It looks like we're at the "waiting for final inspection" stage. This one will come in handy when we go to Ohio to visit family at Christmas time.

    Paying Tesla bill in two countries (USA & Canada)

    You should look into getting a credit card from Capital One. We have a MasterCard from them and they do not charge a foreign currency surcharge. If it is not available in Canada, you could link it to your Florida address. I'm sure that there are other issuers that do not charge a foreign...

    Iconic Superchargers

    I'll second the vote for the newer Kingman AZ location with the Route 66 museum. The Shamrock TX charger is located at the old U-Drop Inn. It's a good photo op for old Route 66 architecture. They have a small gift shop. The diner has not been open any of the times we've stopped there.

    Well.......... no borders crossed today, but I managed to get over to Glendale to nab the new (to me) charger there. #129 3/30/22 Glendale AZ We have a trip coming up soon, and if I really work at it, I might be able to get over 200 this spring.

    I may be grasping at straws here, but seeing that a SC will be built at the Buc-ee's in Leeds, AL might be a positive sign.

    Supercharger - Amarillo, Texas

    The proposed Buc-ee's location on the east side would be great. I love Buc-ee's, and combining that with a charging session would be a great road trip stop. In reading the article, I did not see any mention of EV chargers, but we can still hope. Next item on my wish list is for chargers along...

    Supercharger - Amarillo, Texas

    I was looking at the Tesla Find Us map, and saw a pin for Amarillo, saying target opening in Q3 2022. Any thoughts, opinions or rumors as to a likely location for the possible second Amarillo location?

    Supercharger - Amarillo, Texas

    We charged at Amarillo several times in August, November and December of 2021 and were not charged for any of those sessions. I had wondered about who was footing the bill for it, bit since it was consistent, did not consider it a glitch.

    Range on road trip much lower than expected (<200 miles on full charge)

    OP didn't mention the wind in listing conditions on his drive. The only times we get consumption of 350+ in our LR Model Y is when we are fighting the wind. We have had legs of 400 wh/m westbound across Kansas and New Mexico, because of strong winds. On two road trips this fall that totalled...

    I just installed 2021.44.25 and there is one thing I am happy with, and several I don't like. I like being able to add waypoints and easily re-order them. That said: The odometer cards disappearing from the bottom of the driving visualization panel is a big gripe for me. Even worse, is that...

    Supercharger - Kingman, AZ

    The first thing that comes to mind with this being located so close to the existing location is whether this is adding to or replacing the old SC. I guess we'll have to wait to find out. Seligman would be a useful spot for a new SC to help travelling on I-40 between Kingman and Flagstaff.
